Indigenous Venture Challenge: A Unique Investment Platform for Indigenous Founders

Indigenous Venture Challenge is not a pitch competition. It is an Indigenous-led angel investment platform created to bring together founders and investors to collaborate in building a model that generates generational wealth for all.

Robert Jago, CEO of KnowledgeKeepr: First Nations Community Intelligence on being selected for funding in the inaugural Indigenous Venture Challenge:

"KnowledgeKeepr won 2nd place in the IVC and the funding was the kickstart we needed to get to market. But as important as the money, the IVC helped us get investor ready, giving us an honest assessment of our pitch and investor room, and they worked with us to improve them. They also helped us make connections that led to more funding, more customers — and they did it in a way that was First Nations friendly."
